Hi, For every GSM band there are Uplink and downlink frequencies. Example: GSM 900 TX: 880 MHz to 915 MHz is an uplink frequency range GSM 900 RX: 925 MHz to 960 MHz is a downlink frequency range Aloha, Maverick
As the frequency increase its penetration power decreases.The signal travels a lesser distance.Hence for a perticular area more no of towers need to be erected in 1800/1900 than in 900MHZ for full coverage...Hence vodafone( 1800MHZ) has more towers per unit area than Idea Cellular ( 1800+900) ..... Band of 900 is from 890-915( uplink) 935-960Mhz( downlink).... Band of 1800 is from 1710-1785(uplink) and 1805-1880MHZ(Downlink).... Same property is followed here.....The uplink is lower ( MOBILE -BTS) than the downlink frequency (BTS-MOBILE)...so that this may help the uplink signal to travel futher without consuming much power...BTS due to its increased power ,has higher frequency to tavel the same distance....
Uplink is from MS to BS Downlink is from BS to MS P.S: BS=Base Station, MS=Mobile Station e.g cell phone
The uplink is the transmitter than sends the data up to the satellite. This can take the form of a dish or a highly directional antenna. You typically see these directional antennas mounted on telescoping poles mounted on the top of TV station news vans.
This is bcoz we need -48V for Gsm BTS, -48 DC is used to control Fluctuation So the main function of this is 1) To convert AC to DC 2) To control overloading
In GSM mainly using Panel type antennas but in the case of Microwave Antenna using Horn antennas. Microwave anteenas propogate signal straghtly. So line of sight (LOS) is main issue in the case of Microwave antenna, it means that both antennas must be allign in face to face. Microwave antennas are using for link between BTS but GSM antennas are directly link with customers. Antenna Gain also very much difference both cases. JPS o,[.[;.;[.]/]/ pppppppppppppppp
GSM 900: Uplink frequency: 890 - 915 MHz GSM 1800 : Uplink frequency: 1710 - 1785 MHz GSM 1900: Uplink frequency: 1850 - 1910 MHz
1800mhz
It varies - according to which system is in use. The related link to Wikipedia lists the uplink & downlink frequencies.
So that they can both be used at the same time (i.e. full duplex) without interference.

Uplink and downlink are frequencies Communication from earth station to satellite in uplink and communication from satellite to earth station is downlink Always uplink freq.>downlink freq.
GSM-900 and GSM-1800 are used in most parts of the world: Europe, Middle East, Africa, Australia and most of Asia. In South and Central America the following countries use the following: : :* Costa Rica - GSM-1800 :* Brazil - GSM-850, 900 and 1800 :* Guatemala - GSM-850, GSM-900 and 1900 :* El Salvador - GSM-850, GSM-900 and 1900 GSM-900 uses 890-915 MHz to send information from the mobile station to the base station (uplink) and 935-960 MHz for the other direction (downlink), providing 124 RF channels (channel numbers 1 to 124) spaced at 200 kHz. Duplex spacing of 45 MHz is used. Guard bands 100 kHz wide are placed at either end of the range of frequencies[1]. : In some countries the GSM-900 band has been extended to cover a larger frequency range. This 'extended GSM', E-GSM, uses 880-915 MHz (uplink) and 925-960 MHz (downlink), adding 50 channels (channel numbers 975 to 1023 and 0) to the original GSM-900 band. The GSM specifications also describe 'railways GSM', GSM-R, which uses 876-915 MHz (uplink) and 921-960 MHz (downlink). Channel numbers 955 to 1023. GSM-R provides additional channels and specialized services for use by railway personnel. : All these variants are included in the GSM-900 specification. GSM-1800 uses 1710-1785 MHz to send information from the mobile station to the base tranceiver station (uplink) and 1805-1880 MHz for the other direction (downlink), providing 374 channels (channel numbers 512 to 885). Duplex spacing is 95 MHz. : GSM-1800 is also called DCS (Digital Cellular Service) in the United Kingdom, while being called PCS in Hong Kong[2] (not to mix up with GSM-1900 which is commonly called PCS in the rest of the world.)
Uplink translates also to Upload - where you send data to another destination.
uplink frequency-1710-1785MHz downlink frequency-1805-1880
Uplink frequency is a frequency that goes from the ground to the satellite. Downlink frequency goes from the satellite to the ground.
An Uplink Port is a port on a connectivity device, such as a hub or switch, used to connect it to another connectivity device.
Uplink --> 890 MHz - 915 MHz Downlink --> 935 MHz - 960 MHz
